Chapter 19
Antonio arrived at the entrance of the estate and saw Lincoln standing outside the gate.
He smiled and said, “I heard from the butler that Lincoln came six times in the past half month. Is there something going on?”
Lincoln stared at him, “I came to visit Grace, her phone has been turned off. Antonio, did you lock her up? Even if you are married, what you’re doing is illegal.”
Antonio sneered, “Lincoln, you also knew that we were married, right? As an elder, do you think you have been paying too much attention to your niece–in–law?”
He took a few steps closer and spoke in a low voice, “Even if Grace kissed you, it doesn’t mean anything. She was just trying to make me angry. You don’t really think that Grace likes you, do you?”
Lincoln froze.
“Lincoln, don’t come here anymore in the future, and don’t come even if there’s something, you are not welcome here.”
On the way back to the room, as soon as he thought about someone else coveting Grace, his heart was almost consumed by the flames of jealousy.
No, it was not safe to stay here. He wanted to take Grace to the newly bought island to live!

He immediately instructed his assistant to arrange this matter.
In the following days, he was busy with this matter. The day before he was supposed to finish, his assistant suddenly called and said that Rowena had come to their company and caused a scene. She was standing on the rooftop, holding two children, and said that she would jump if she couldn’t see him.
Antonio went to the company with a serious face.
Shortly after he left, Lincoln stormed into the mansion with his men.
When Lincoln found Grace, she was standing by the balcony.
He stood silently next to Grace for a while, until her impatient gaze swept over, “What are you here for?”
He gathered up the courage to speak. “Do you… do you remember rescuing a kidnapped boy when you were a child?”
Over the years, it was always Lincoln who took care of others. In his memory, that little girl was the only person who had taken care of him.
She was special to him, but Lincoln couldn’t quite describe what kind of feeling it was.
Grace stood frozen in place because of his words, “You…”
“It’s me!” Lincoln’s eyes lit up, “You still remember me!”
Grace sneered, “Of course I remember you, you deceitful liar.”
Back then, he had clearly promised to call the police for himself after running away. Young Grace had told her mother this news, and her mother, rarely, showed a smile to her. Lik

a child, she kept asking, “Is it true? You’re not tricking me, right?”
“Of course not, he promised!” Grace assured, patting her chest.
But they waited and waited, a month passed, a year passed, several years passed, and the police never came to rescue them.
The mother resented her greatly for this, as she believed that Grace, just like her biological father, was a liar.
In the following years, she never saw her mother smile again.
Lincoln hurriedly explained, “I reported it back then! But at that time, I fell seriously ill and when I woke up, I couldn’t remember the exact location of that mountain village. I have been searching for you all these years.”
Grace walked away with a cold laugh, “It doesn’t matter anymore, but I truly regret now. I shouldn’t have saved you back then, I should have let you rot there. Otherwise, my relationship with my mother wouldn’t have turned so bad, and I wouldn’t be forced to face that disgusting person, Antonio.”
Lincoln stood frozen in place. His chest tightened, and he felt a slight tingling sensation in his limbs.
“Wait!” he stopped Grace, “I… I’m sorry, I can’t change what has already happened, but I can make it up to you. If you don’t want to stay, I will take you away right now.”
Grace stopped in her tracks. “Antonio threatened my friends using me as leverage. Can you guarantee their safety after I leave?”

Grace fell silent for a moment, “I trusted you one last time.”
Because she didn’t have any other options now.
